Currently living in Wheaton, Illinois, close to Chicago. Originally from The Netherlands and I can't wait to move back in 2.5 months!

[Chris]

Mariska... you brought a distant memory back to life for me... My grandmother's family settled in Wheaton... after coming from Europe. All the family but a brother made their way to Canada in the end... I remember going to a huge family reunion in Wheaton in the 80's and having a blast... I think the family are all gone now... I think the son went on to be a big TV chef, and own several high end bed and breakfast places along the east coast... What brought you there from the Netherlands? I'd be excited to go back too!!! lol
